Holt Arena 2024: British Bond Bug

“My name is Bond, Bug Bond.”  This 1970 Bond Bug was made by a British company called Reliant Motor Company.

On the 15th-16th of March 2024, Idaho State University (ISU)-College of Technology Automotive Program held its ‘Chrome in the Dome’ car show.  My buggy video:

The owner of this Bond Bug bought the body/chassis from a seller in the United Kingdom.  The motor came from a Bond Bug owner in California, who converted his Bug to electric (with poor results as the old high-octane gas powered Bug has a far greater range than the electric version).

The Bond Bug was not sold in the United States, in fact the owner of this Bond Bug has to import the tiny tires from Canada!
